Formula 1 driver Charles Leclerc lived out his own romantic Ferrari Fairytale when he wed his longtime partner, Alexandra Saint Mleux (now Alexandra Leclerc), in a simple-yet-stunning private ceremony in Monaco on Saturday February 28, 2026. Driving away in a vintage Ferrari red convertible, photos of the newlyweds were captured by observers and quickly spread across the entire globe as mourning began for Charles Leclerc officially being taken off of the available dating market.

But fear not as there are several drivers on the F1 grid this year who are starting the season off as single men. As engines rev up for the first GP of the season – the 2026 Australian Grand Prix – here are the Formula 1 drivers who are still searching for the perfect person to introduce to the paddock on race day.


Lando Norris Is World Champion – And Single!

McLaren’s Lando Norris – and 2025 F1 World Champion – has recently joined the single ranks upon the accidental slip of his tongue about his offseason breakup with girlfriend Magui Corceiro. Norris was chatting away with Williams F1 driver Carlos Sainz Jr. when he let it slip that he’s now a single man.

The McLaren driver and the Portuguese model were applauded and cheered on across the globe when they shared an intimate celebratory kiss on camera just moments after Norris won the 2025 FIA Formula 1 World Championship, ultimately surpassing the reigning champion, Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, in the final Grand Prix of the year. The news of a breakup between Lando Norris and Magui Corceiro is a shock to the world given how in love they appeared to be when they embraced upon Lando’s final race of the previous season. But just like Norris has started a new career journey by opting to change his grid number to #1, it seems like his love life is also awaiting a new chapter.


Kimi Antonelli Also Experienced a Breakup During the Offseason

Mercedes Formula 1 driver and youngest F1 competitor on the grid, Kimi Antonelli, also used the offseason to reveal the news that he has separated from his girlfriend, Eliska Bábíčková. Although, it was technically Eliska who told the world the update on her social media accounts.

Given that the pair are still so young – Bábíčková is 18-years-old and Antonelli is 19-years-old – they still have plenty of time to each find the right person in their lives. It’s certainly sad when puppy love falls apart, but young relationships are always an excellent learning experience. Kimi is a promising driver on the Mercedes team and now that he’s recently graduated high school via homeschool between Grand Prix races last year, he can focus on thriving on the track!
